I purchased this camera for the video more than the photo feature. I have been very happy with the video quality of this camera. The photo side leaves a little to be desired. The auto settings are fine for most pictures but in odd light or action shots it could be better. Especially for the price. My previous camera was a Sony DSC-P9 and that took better pictures than this one. Like I said, I got this more for the video than the photo and I have been pretty happy with that. I find it ...

I went out of my way to get one of these to replace my M1 that was damaged. This is no upgrade from the M1! Problems: M1 took better video in low light rooms. Redeye is horrible and indoor pictures usually come out grainy.
